Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 210 A Complete Victory over Wei Zhuang, Recruiting Han Fei

Three days later.

Xinzheng, Zilanxuan.

Zi Nu received Cai Die's letter.

After reading the letter, she called Nongyu over.

"Yu'er."

"Shouldn't you go learn swordsmanship?"

Zi Nu asked.

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Nongyu looked puzzled, then nodded.

She plans to learn swordsmanship tomorrow or the day after.

The weather is a bit gloomy today, and it's very likely to rain this afternoon.

"After you finish learning swordsmanship, have Mr. Xu come over."

"Just say I'm treating him to drinks."

The purple-clad woman smiled alluringly.

"it is good."

Nongyu was taken aback at first, then nodded.

After speaking, she changed into a long robe and rode her horse to the Xu residence.

When she arrived at the Xu residence, the atmosphere was gloomy and desolate.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, she began practicing her swordplay.

……

More than half an hour later.

There was thunder and lightning and strong winds.

"That's it for today."

Seeing this, Xu Lin spoke up.

After saying this, he handed Nongyu a stack of tissue paper and told her to wipe her sweat.

"gentlemen."

"Are you busy today?"

"Sister Zi Nu would like to invite you for a drink."

Nongyu asked while wiping her sweat.

Her skin was already fair, but it looked even more radiant after she sweated.

"drink wine?"

Xu Lin frowned slightly.

Then he went to Zilan Pavilion with Nongyu.

He had just arrived on the third floor of Zilan Pavilion when it started to rain outside.

"You'd better go change your clothes."

Seeing that Nongyu's clothes were still clinging to her body, Xu Lin spoke up.

"it is good."

Nongyu nodded.

Xu Lin then went to the study.

"Mr. Xu, long time no see!"

Zi Nu looked in the direction of the sound and smiled charmingly when she saw Xu Lin.

After speaking, she suddenly stood up and made Xu Lin sit down at the table.

Then he personally poured Xu Lin a bottle of orchid wine.

"It's been several days since I last saw you."

"Miss Zi has gained quite a bit of weight."

Xu Lin sat cross-legged and spoke loudly.

Upon hearing this, Zi Nu rolled her eyes at Xu Lin, then took out Cai Die's letter from her sleeve and handed it to Xu Lin.
Not every woman is like Mingzhu, who prefers a fuller figure.

Although Zi Nu doesn't dislike plumpness, she doesn't particularly like it either.

“Actually, Butterfly should have shown my token from the beginning.”

"If that's the case, the new Zilan Pavilion might already be completed."

Xu Lin teased with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zi Nu hesitated, as if she wanted to speak.

Taking out Xu Lin's token means owing Xu Lin a favor.

She didn't want to owe Xu Lin too many favors!

What are your plans next?

"I suggest we sell this Zilan Pavilion."

"It is not about the quantity of people, but their quality; and the Zilan Pavilion is also not about the quantity."

Xu Lin took a sip of the orchid wine and asked.

"That's what I think too."

"What do you think, sir? How about selling it to Ninth Prince Han Fei?"

"The Quicksand organization has been established for so long, yet it has no stronghold. How can this be acceptable?"

Zi Nu smiled and took a sip of orchid wine.

"good idea."

Xu Lin smiled.

Upon hearing this, Zi Nu instructed her maid to go to the Ninth Prince's residence to invite Han Fei.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Zhuang arrived.

The young Wei Zhuang was dressed in a black and gold robe, which looked both gorgeous and aloof. His gray hair was loose over his shoulders, giving him an air of arrogance and coldness.

"You are Xu Lin?"

Wei Zhuang looked at Xu Lin and asked in a cold voice.

"Yes."

Xu Lin nodded. "I've heard that your cultivation is quite high. Would you be willing to have a friendly spar?"

Wei Zhuang was burning with fighting spirit.

He had no personal grudge against Xu Lin; he wanted to spar with Xu Lin simply because he liked to challenge strong opponents!
Xu Lin initially wanted to refuse, but seeing the expectant looks on Zi Nu's and the newly arrived Nong Yu's faces, he reluctantly accepted Wei Zhuang's challenge.

"You want to have a sparring match here?"

Seeing that Xu Lin and Wei Zhuang showed no sign of leaving, Zi Nu blinked her beautiful eyes and asked.

Wei Zhuang's swordsmanship is fierce and powerful; be careful not to damage her Purple Orchid Pavilion!

"Purple Maiden, do not worry."

"Since it is a friendly exchange, we will stop when we have reached our goal, so that Zilan Pavilion will not be harmed."

Xu Lin comforted.

After speaking, he suddenly stood up, put his left hand behind his back, and slowly drew the long sword from his waist.

Zi Nu nodded and retreated outside the door with Nong Yu.

Wei Zhuang then channeled his inner strength and slashed at Xu Lin's face.

Seeing this, Xu Lin not only did not retreat, but also took half a step forward.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xu Lin actually used his left hand to pinch the shark tooth.

Wei Zhuang, Zi Nu, and the others were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Wei Zhuang's thunderous strike was actually caught by Xu Lin with his bare hands?
After a few breaths, Xu Lin released Shark Tooth and thrust it towards Wei Zhuang's left shoulder with the force of a thunderbolt.

By the time Wei Zhuang reacted, the tip of the sword was already pressed against his left shoulder.

In a real battle, Wei Zhuang would be seriously injured even if he didn't die!

"you win."

Upon seeing this, Wei Zhuang felt ashamed of his own inferiority.

After speaking, he bowed to Xu Lin and then turned and left.

He knew Xu Lin was strong, but he didn't expect Xu Lin to be this strong!
After Wei Zhuang walked away, Nongyu and Zi Nu simultaneously began clapping and praising him.

Xu Lin smiled modestly and said that he was just lucky.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

Han Fei arrived at Zilan Pavilion.

Although the rain had subsided slightly, Han Fei was still in a sorry state.

He didn't come by car, he came on horseback; he likes riding horses.

"Miss Zi Nu, Mr. Xu, it's been a long time!"

Han Fei bowed respectfully.

Then he casually sat down, picked up the wine pot, and poured some orchid wine into the wine vessel.

After a brief chat, Zi Nu shifted the topic to selling Zi Lan Xuan.

"Ninth Young Master".

"The Quicksand organization has been around for so long, how can it function without a base?"

"What do you think of this Purple Orchid Pavilion?"

Zi Nu asked with a smile.

After she finished speaking, she poured Xu Lin some more wine.

Then she moved to the right, reducing the distance between her and Xu Lin from one step to half a step.

"Is Miss Zi Nu really leaving Xinzheng?"

Han Fei was first taken aback, then shocked.

More than half a month ago, he heard that Zi Nu was going to leave Xinzheng and go to Xianyang to develop her career.

"Yes."

Zi Nu nodded.

"We're all friends, so I can offer you a very reasonable price, Ninth Young Master."

Zi Nu glanced at Xu Lin and continued.

"What does Ninth Young Master think of the five thousand gold pieces?"

"You know, back then..."

Zi Nu asked.

Before she could finish speaking, Han Fei interrupted her.

"I am deeply grateful for Miss Zi Nu's kindness."

"Of course..."

Han Fei Dao.

"Then four thousand gold pieces?"

"Three thousand five hundred? Forget it, three thousand gold!"

"Young Master Jiu is a man of great learning; he should know that Zilan Pavilion is worth at least five thousand gold coins. Three thousand gold coins would definitely be a losing proposition. If we weren't in such a hurry to leave, and if we weren't such good friends, then three thousand gold coins would be a much better deal..."

Purple Maiden said.

She was interrupted by Han Fei again before she could finish her sentence.

"Miss Zi Nu, you've misunderstood."

“It’s not that I think five thousand gold is too expensive, but that after the change of ownership in Nanyang, the Quicksand has become a mere shell of its former self and no longer needs a stronghold.”

"Since Miss Zi Nu really wants to sell, I can help find a buyer. The price will definitely not be lower than three thousand gold!"

Han Fei said seriously.

"it is good."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Ninth Young Master!"

Zi Nu smiled, bowed, and thanked her.

"I heard from Li Si some time ago that Brother Han is considering switching allegiance to the Qin state."

"I wonder what Brother Han has decided?"

Xu Lin leaned back and asked with a smile.

After saying that, he casually placed his hand on Zi Nu's leg.

Upon feeling Xu Lin's hand, Zi Nu frowned and immediately pushed his hand away.
